Description

This attractive succulent quickly forms rosettes of gray green, thick, wide, pointed upwards leaves. Overall shape of plant reminds one of lotus blossoms except this plant is only 5" tall and 8" wide. Cold weather causes leaf color to change to pink. This plant will naturalize. It tolerates full sun in coastal areas but needs afternoon shade in warmer, inland regions. It needs well draining soil and is drought tolerant once it's established. Great for rock gardens.
